Bulls Hope Noah Will Bring New Energy to the Team

August 15, 2007

The Chicago Bulls are gearing up for the 2007-2008 basketball season and it’s hopeful that their new players will give Bulls fans something to smile about. Joakim Noah was the 9th pick in the first round for the Bulls, and hopes are high that the 6’11”, 232 lb player will give the Bulls that extra spring that their steps have been missing for quite some time. The 22 year-old power forward from New York lead the University of Florida to consecutive NCAA titles, making them the first team to do so in the last 15 years. Noah played three seasons with the Gators and started 78 of his 108 games played.

Luol Deng, guard and forward for the Bulls, has high hopes for what Joakim Noah will bring to the team. According to press notes Deng has said, “The best thing about him is he’s energetic – he’s young and I think he’ll lift us up in a lot of games. I hope he can be one of the stars in the future, and I wish him nothing but the best”. So, it seems that the Bulls are seeking out the talented younger players in anticipation of bringing a new liveliness to their game. As it goes, the veterans teach and push the rookies, and the rookies inspire and push back at the veterans.
